      you will have to copy-paste this into a new window for it to work properly!
      These are many views of my ship. It is in the sames style as the last one I posted on the gallery, and the body is complete. I am facing a dilema concerning the weapons though. Whenever I add on weapons it compromises the sleek profile of the ship, but this doesn't look like a civilian vessel so it has to have them SOMEWHERE!

      Maybe you can make some suggestions, I'd be open to anything at this point. If you could suggest some weapon types and where to put them, I'd really appreciate it a lot

      Thanks for your time 🙂

    • The things on the side look like they could be guns instead. It also looks like it could have weapons slung underneath.

      It could just be that I'm incompetant, but I can't seem to get the image to work for me. I keep getting re-routed back to the forum. Even if I paste the url into a new browser. Blah :frown:.

    • Yeah, a ship like that looks like it would have all of it's weapons underneath. Otherwise, to have weapons match it, the ship would have to have customized weapons, which doesn't make too much sense as far as the game goes.

    • Indeed. Slung underneath could work, and you could boolean-subtract some cylinders from the somewhat conical sections on the sides and put guns in the resulting recessed holes.

      It's just a touch too dark...and I'm not especially fond of your new type of engine glow. Just IMHO.

      (I'm afraid to ask where the phone number in your sig actually goes...)

      Well, keep in mind I'm just experimenting with the ship for now, and that this is just a heavily modified version of my last ship. Since I usually do the weapons and flares last, they are still the same as on my last ship, I appreciate your opinion though.

      Thanks to ALL for your opinions, not just Weepul

    • You don't necessarly have to ADD guns either. Case and point, the gatling gun on fighter jets (F-15s, 16s, etc.) They basically just have holes in the body. A small indentation to make the exit path straight and maybe a small bulge around the actually area I think would really do your design justice.
